Fallen crypto billionaire Sam Bankman-Fried is being held in a Bahamian jail known to be overrun with rats and maggots — one so bad a warden has called it “not fit for humanity.”
The accused fraudster, once estimated to be worth $32 billion, is being held in the island’s only correctional facility, Fox Hill Prison, until at least Feb. 8 after failing to get bail while fighting against extradition to the US.
The jail was the focus of a damning report last year by the US Department of State into possible human rights violations, including violence and abuse by staff.
Mini-Madoff is in for some serious culture shock.
